Hadn’t thought of that Peter, quite apt!
We had a great day, only had one slight mishap which added 0.2miles to our tour & got 19 out of 21. Most importantly we didn’t fall out and are heading towards our next anniversary 
What a relaxed way to enjoy our cars & meet up with like minded people, highly recommended & to cap it all for a great cause.

On reflection there were some wonderful vehicles taking part. The Stepside was great and probably best in show as it were, but if I was asked which one I'd take home then the DB3S would be the choice.

Funny you should say that Peter. Whilst looking through all of the magnificent pictures I too started wondering which of the wonderful cars I would like to have the most. The Stepside doesn't appeal to me, I'm not really into Americana. The exotics although fantastic would be way beyond my reach financially to run, and beyond my engineering ability to maintain, as would many of the more historic vehicles. I finally settled on the lovely wide-arched Mini as my favourite.

Just had word from Craven Motor Club that they have allotted us £1000.00 from the Maharajahs Tour.This with donations of over £500.00 is a fantastic amount of money that we can give to our local charities. Thank you Craven and everyone involved last year. Fingers crossed we can do something this year.

It probably won't stop the virus but nobody would care.
